New Phone

Well!!! Yes, i lost everything. There was no life in the phone at all. Boy when i opened the washer and saw it laying there on top, i knew it was not a 'good thing'. Now i have a new phone, that sure is purty, BUT i will be lucky if i can figure out how to answer it! HAHa. Do u think it will keep my brain active?

  1. I need a new phone and keep putting it off because I don't want to learn how to use the new phones.

  2. So what kind of phone did you get? I got a Vortex and have learned to really like it. I really didn't want to give it a chance but I'm sure glad I did. Anything to keep the ole brain moving.

  3. You'll love your new phone. It's a whole new experience, and you'll wonder how you did without it. Verizon has a free on-line back-up for their phones, so if I lose mine, I can access the info and download it to my new phone. Does Sprint have that? Have fun!

  4. I just bought my first Droid smartphone last week, and it has an amazing amount of capabilities, but yes, I did manage to learn how to make and receive calls on it, LOL.

    On another topic, I just finished reading the first Nancy Turner book that you recommended, These is My Words. I enjoyed it very much and am looking forward to reading book 2 in the series. Thanks for telling us about the books!

  5. Good luck with the new phone. There certainly is a learning curve with the new phones, they sometimes do too many things. :)

  6. I would venture to say there is near no learning curve to an iPhone if you have availability in your area; get one. Reading all these RV blogs, like Retired Rod, who cracks me up, but to hear every "senior" has issues with figuring out their phones.

    Android phones usually come with a multi hundred page instruction manual, I don't believe iPhones come with an instruction manual. they do have around 30 or so short but very well done instructional videos.

    Bottom line, if you need an instruction manual, or to learn how to use a phone, the engineers have failed the consumer. I feel this applies to damn near anything technological these days. Imagine if we needed to learn how to open a can of coke.
